WP roll not to vomit himself?  Hope he's not a berzerker.  The disgust could work as shock, if you're a good aim it could temporarily lower his Per.  A guy with vomit in his eyes probably has a small combt pool.  Damn that's silly hehe

Yeah, it really depends on how kewl-powerz-anime style this vomit is. I could see it doing ST+2b, other stats as a thrown knife, just for fun.

Have him hold needles in his mouth like a l33t ninja.  Then he can vomit at people's faces.

This brings Spinal Tap to mind.

I can see it now, a "wounded" man at arms (ambushed by vomit, you see), being succored by the local healer...

Healer: "My God man, who did this to you?"

MaA: "Well, I'm not entirely sure whose vomit it was... you can't very well "dust for vomit", now can you?"

OK, it's late, and I'm going to bed.

Well, a friend of mine had to "full evade" for vomit but had, I think, a lvl 1 vomit damage to zone XIII - ear. If it had been in a combat situation he probably had -2 CP ;)

maybe it would be cool if you had a penalty when doing heath rolls. all that vomiting has to be bad for your health. you should also lose a lot of weight, you know, like bulemics.

And it'll wreck your teeth if you do it often enough - all that acid really strips the enamel off your teeth.

Oh and as someone who's been on the receiving end of projectile vomit a number of times I can tell you:[list=1]
